Look to the Garden.

Farmers would raise more cab
bages if they had the plants, and
the reason they have no plants is
because they do not SOW the seed.
The farmer of to-day with brains
and ambition to make his farm pay,
must clear his mind of cobwebs and
his back Of moss, and take his gard
en- out into the open field.
The greatest trouble in raising
celery plants is in the beginning.
The seeds terminate slowly, and the
tiny plants are so. tender that they
require almost constant care until
well up aud growing. While hot
bed is good, if one knows just what
to do, or how TO run it, we have
been successful in growing plants in
the open ground.
The land planted with early peas
and beans should be made to carry
late crop of squashes or cucumber
pickles For this purpose, if squash
es are to be grown, leave every fourth
row blank when growing peas, and
put in squash seed about June to
5. If pickles are to be grown go
through the field about, June 90 and
hoe up hills in the furrow between
each second row ofpeas or beans and
put in the cucumber seeds.

A,Matter forlThouaht-Roads.

3 Goods.roads not only save horse
flesh, but vehicles. Take what are
ordinarily called "good roads" and
s'bad roads," and q vehicle used
on the first only will last twice as
long, at least, as Que used on the
latter only. No one can doubt that
country roads would be fifty per
cent better than they now are if the
labor and money put upon the
them were properly applied. How 20
have that work and money properly
applied is the matter to be discussed
now, that the best methods may be
ready for adoption when the season
for road-making comes. Whether
or not the road-bed should be only
surface drained, or underdrained
with tile, or by puttingsin cordu
roy foundation; whether or not
gravel or plank should be used how
best to use gravel, or plank or tile
these are points to be decided.
The farmers club should also dis
cuss specifically the repair Of each
highway IN the neighborhood. This
will lead, among other things, to an
understanding whether or not it will
be proper to shorten'a highway by
strengthening it; whether a road
that now goes around hill,
should be carried over it by grad
ingsdown the, hill or whether MAX
ing q road longer by carrying it
around hill will be compensated
by the less grade; how to keep
weeds from growing in the highways
to seed the adjacent land, and many
other points which thus being set
tied, would greatly add to the i'm
provement of the roads.
